Actually it's not.
This thread was started to ask if we expected visitors to follow house rules or were they exempt.
The poor OP (who I don't think has been seen again :rotfl:) specifically mentioned opening windows :rotfl:.

I have cream carpets all through my house
Shoes off at the door please. Dont like it? Dont come in.
No smoking in the house
All visitors are expected to follow the same rules as those that live here

Everyone is welcome here, and we often have visitors and have never had any complaints!

And you don't see a stain that has been cleaned, but has left a coloured mark on a white / cream / beige carpet!...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
the reason i started this post is when we visited parents (now parent) they didnt really like their sliding patio window open or many windows in the house? It was really stuffy sitting there especially after a long car journey?:footie:0
